Great racing. The top in each fleet, imho, are at least level with the PWA and given the extra skills they need to have down (tacks, judging laylines, etc) are the better all around foilers. I say that having a ton of respect for the PWA foilers (I'm thinking of the last women's final in Japan - just amazing.)

It certainly was a great spectacle, sailed in very lumpy conditions with amazing speed considering the wind strength. I feel the medal race format seems a bit of a lottery still, to my inexperienced eye.It was interesting to see Johan Soe's dominance in the PWA challenged. ( perhaps he had an off week)

Johan used the wrong tactics in the start fighting too hard to get the pin, and that lost him the chance the win the race and move on to the next round.

And more so the competition level appears to be more robust than PWA

Yes the margins for error are way smaller then in the PWA. It is impressive that Johan prefers the iq foil where things are way harder for him and the pwa is only secondary for him, because it is easier.
